Fuuuucking great. Clearly where we're shopping then. Another Ben Mee.

 

[UddersBlade]

38 years old in October FFS!!!! Noooooooo

 

[KMC-1889]

There’s a reason he was only offered a coaching role at Everton.

Damage Hoyland has done to this club will last a decade.

 

[Wards]

As back up to Seriki I guess it's fine, working on the assumption he plays no more than 5-10 games in the season.

 

[jt64]

How about no

 

[Smirth]

Wow. I shouldn’t be surprised but somehow I am. Look forward to hearing about culture, and experience, how good a role model he is. Just like Ben Mee and Danny Ings which proved really successful.

 

[NordicHarry]

1000% would rather have Curtis as back up than Coleman, don't see the point and we'd be talking 10k a week.

 

[brownblade]

Seems very lazy this. Is there a recruitment team any more?!

 

[Rodley]

Be happy with him, decent pick up

Don't think there ever as been mate

Not sure what people are expecting. He's training with us. Maybe he'll sign, maybe he won't. We're clearly on our arses financially. No problem for me if he does sign as a back up.

 

[Blades98]

No issue with this if he's back up to Seriki personally.

Not reyt sure what people are expecting really. Seems sensible to me, especially if he's on a lower wage.

 

[Danetheblade]

Fantastic signing. Mainstay of the squad.

 

[LiamBG]

Wilderball baby. Strap yourselves in

 

[FredZeppelin]

Seriki replacement maybe?

utb

As a backup I don’t mind him.

He still plays regularly for Ireland.

I’d just be worried it would be another Ben Mee where he gets injured and never plays.

If not, you'll find him the Penny Black

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

You know the answer...
.and it's a no!!!

He wants to continue playing, hence turning down any role at Everton. I think he would be a great asset in the dressing room as a experienced voice, just ask any manager or player at Everton what there opinion of Coleman is and it would be a very positive one, good back up for Femi as well.

 

[Guesty]

If we're on our arses financially the last thing we want to do is spend our meagre money in crocks who will never play.

 

[Ron_Justice]

Too old for me. His recent history is a disaster at club level (less than 900 minutes, in 3 seasons according to Futmob). The Champ is a tough, tough league. If you can't play 60+ mins, twice a week, all season, you should be nowhere near the first team, and I'm being generous with the 60+ mins.

 

[Champagneblade]

26 games in three years says it all.

I’d rather we somehow decide to develop Sachdev/Curtis/Colechan/Giggs.

We already have Shackleton calling in sick in that position.

I'm sure we have decided to develop the 4 youngsters but they are possibly not ready for the Championship yet.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Reads to me as if he's just training with us to keep fit anyway.

Personally think the squad does need experience but preferably not 37!

 

[HOT CURRIE 10]

You have to be joking,even a £10k a week,half a million a year,a complete waste of money. Another one for a last payday,do you never learn ?

 

[54yrblade]

Time to stop talking about what an old, injured player brings to the dressing room.

Thats Wilder talk for justifying a bad spend.

We get points on the pitch and by scoring goals, not for camaraderie.

What do we actually pay Hoyland for ?
